 U.S. Radio Inspection Districts Map - July, 1922

In late 1912, the Department of Commerce and Labor's Bureau of Navigation divided the United States into nine "Radio Inspection Districts", in order to enforce provisions of the August 13, 1912 "Act to Regulate Radio Communication". The layout of the districts reflected the early emphasis on radio's use by seagoing vessels. Except for a few minor adjustments, the overall district boundaries were still the same in 1922.
The August 15, 1919 edition of Radio Communication Laws of the United States, included the following description of the Radio Inspection Districts:

163. The Department has established, for the purpose of enforcing, through radio inspectors and others, the acts relating to radio communication and the International Convention, the following districts, with the principal office for each district at the customhouse of the port named.
